On2 VP6 codec and Adobe Flash question

[bally3]

Hi, I have two questions:

Firstly, I've been trying to play flv files that need the on2 VP6 codec using Coreplayer but apparently their site says it is not supported.

Are there any codecs available that can or any player? I used mplayer downloaded from this site that does play the file but is jerky and audio is out sync.

Secondly, I use miniopera as my default browser and I am an avid facebook user. The Facebook site keeps telling me that I need Adobe flash installed. I have installed flash7 but it still tells me i need to install it.
(Snap2face application works great but its not the same being on the website!)


Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

flash plugins only work for ie as of yet. That being said, either visit facebook mobile using ie, or get the opera mobile 9.5 available on opera's site, and visit the full fledged facebook.

Sorry I should have mentioned, itdoes the same in ie and opera 9.5 (didnt like 9.5 too many glitchy graphics!?!).

Same question here. Is there a solution to use opera and play flash. And is it possible to play a flv with on2 vp6 codec on core player. (you know flash movies for those lonely nights):p

[bally3]

Coreplayer says On2 VP6 is not supported and I havent found anywhere any codec or program that supports it. I had some luck with mplayer playing them but its jerky at best, though I have noticed slight improvements after loading the Omnio drivers and if I play a flv file after soft resetting the voice sync isnt that bad.

Funnily mplayer is the only one that shows any video. All the others just give me sound only.

Flash works with the newest build of Opera 9.5 , Build 1938!

The flash you need can be found here:

After installing Flash, you have to soft reset the phone! It WON'T work with Opera mini!!!

I'm using a Polaris with WM 6.0 and have no problems viewing youtube videos, or youp*rn / redt*be.... i can also play some flash games online!

Doesnt work for me on UDK's 6.1 rom - even tried a hard reset, its got the latest opera on it but it still says i have an older version of flash on youtube videos.

Oh well.. maybe it works only on 6.0? :o

Just read the small print "you must remove all previous versions of flash" apparently if its cooked into the rom like udk's it wont work, unless someone know a workaround? :rolleyes:

In Settings => system => Add/Remove Programs

There is a thread regarding the TCPMP GF5500, I ever try it and those FLV files with On2 VP6 format can be play without any problem.

Can try to download it, but the forum is in Chinese language. Can use google to translate it. ;)

U can try this patch for TCPMP.
I've tested it on WM6.1. It worked but was a little jerky on my Touch Cruise.

Rename the att. to .cab. and run it on ur mobile.

!

I copied the flv files out my browser cache and imported them into Kino on Ubuntu 9.04. I then exported them as MPEG-2.

Then I used VLC to build the FFMPEG command to "Convert" the MPEG-2 to an MP4/AAC file. I had to manually set the scale to a different value as Android's video player won't play anything bigger than 320x256(-ish). Whatever file you want to play, you need to scale it down to 320x240 at most. You need to have the "unstripped" FFMPEG files / libraries installed as the ones shipped with Ubuntu are fairly limited for legal reasons. Have a look here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1117283

Ok, it's not playing native On2 VP6....but the processor required to play those might see them looking pretty bad even if you can decode them. Converting the files to mp4/aac produces a compatible file....and they play very well.

You can use the "Ultra Video Convertor" to convert the VP6 to a AVI.
The video quality on WM was real crisp..:p
